Peril on The Darjeeling Limited
On the road again, or in this case on the train again. The Darjeeling Limited, Wes Anderson's new film starring Adrien Brody and Owen Wilson, was limited in audience expectation despite the star power - though it was never designed to be the Kyoto Express. All these metaphors are appropriate since so much of the film takes place on a train in India.
Of peripheral interest is the impact of Owen Wilson's reported wounds and hospitalization, which by all accounts were self inflicted. But does this type of publicity surrounding a film's star before the movie's release affect the public's perception of the film and more importantly, its box office?
